Originally posted by JocelynC My mom is a former Florida State co-ed cheerleader, and for years, she's wondered HOW the HELL Kentucky keeps winning. The most recent they came in 2nd was in 2003 to UCF.

Because they're awesome!

Kentucky cheerleading is similar to any top NCAA football/basketball/baseball/gymnastics/hockey (insert your personal favorite sport) program. They have a tradition of excellence that attracts top athletes to their program. Kentucky takes cheerleading seriously, and yes, there are scholarships available to Kentucky cheerleaders. It's not necessarily a full ride, but blue squad members get full in-state rides with additional assistance for any out of staters. White squad members are eligible for a partial scholarship if they have a 3.0 or higher.

Re the West Georgia Cheerleaders: One of the girls on the squad lives across the street from me, and I watched her grow up. Her mom carted both her and her sister to gymnastics for years, and it paid off when she received a cheerleading scholarship to West Georgia! Her mother called me and told me that it's a good chance that her sister may be joining her next year. Congratulations to West Georgia!
